AWS Tools for PowerShell and AWS Tools for PowerShell Core are PowerShell modules, built on functionality exposed by the AWS SDK for .NET, that enable you to script operations on AWS resources from the PowerShell command line. Although you use the SDK’s service clients and methods to implement the cmdlets, the cmdlets give you a PowerShell experience to specify parameters and handle results. For example, the cmdlets in both modules support PowerShell pipelining to pipe PowerShell objects to and from the cmdlets.
